Chapter 247: Daddy Is Really Powerful!
On second thought, everyone felt that with Lin Xuan’s ability and status, he was indeed worthy of Nalan Yan’s flattery.
Not to mention anything else, just Lin Xuan’s appearance was enough to dominate the nine heavens and ten lands.
Even the legendary empress, Donghuang Ziyou, was willing to give him four daughters. Which woman in the world could resist his charm?
“Okay.”
Lin Xuan was happy to accept Nalan Yan’s initiative.
!!
However, everyone could see the distance in his gaze. He wouldn’t get involved with Nalan Yan just because of Nalan Yan’s friendliness.
Nalan Yan’s expression was calm.
She knew long ago that she wasn’t worthy of Lin Xuan’s attention, but being able to successfully dedicate a song already made her very happy.
Then, she played “Spring River and Autumn Moon” in front of everyone.
Her fingers flicked gently, and the melody was melodious and lingering. It was very pleasant to the ears.
In order to make the atmosphere more lively, Ye Yang ordered the advanced musicians upstairs to come and liven up the atmosphere after Nalan Yan finished playing.
Nalan Yan took the initiative to sing another song when she saw this, and everyone cheered.
And they naturally wouldn’t forget that they were able to enjoy this today purely because of Lin Xuan.
Otherwise, even if they spent all their effort, they wouldn’t be able to invite the Heartless Valley Master, Nalan Yan, to play two songs in a row!
After the song was finished, Xuan Zhu and the others hurriedly jumped down from Lin Xuan’s arms and ran to the musical instruments beside the hall.
The little girls sized up these musical instruments curiously.
Especially the three rows of bells on the huge bell stand. They had all sorts of sizes and looked very interesting.
Furthermore, the little girls had noticed just now that every time these bells struck, they would emit an especially melodious sound.
“Father, what is this instrument?” Xuan Zhu asked curiously.
Xuan Xi, Xuan Han, and Xuan You also widened their curious eyes.
They had never seen such an instrument in North Mystic Heaven.
Lin Xuan said with a smile, “This instrument is called a bell. It’s a large percussion instrument.”
Xuan Xi raised her hand. “Then is there any difference in these bells?”
Lin Xuan nodded. “Of course there’s a difference. Not only is the volume of the bell different, but even the pitch is different.”
“Only by combining them can you play pleasant music.”
“Oh, I see!”
The little girls racked their brains and remembered Lin Xuan’s words.
As for Nalan Yan, Ye Yang, and the others, they were full of praise.
It turned out that the Consort was so proficient in musical instruments. He was really knowledgeable!
“Then can we knock?” Xuan Han asked politely.
Ye Yang raised his hand and smiled. “Princesses, if you like it, feel free to knock!”
“Thank you!”
Then, the little girls picked up the mallets and knocked on the bells one by one.
Lin Xuan was pleasantly surprised to discover that the little girls were actually very talented in music.
Although it was random knocking, it didn’t sound bad.
But soon, a problem arose.
Because the bells were too high, the little girls could only ring the lowest row of bells.
They couldn’t reach the two rows above!
“Xuan Han, I’ll carry you. Try knocking on the top!”
Xuan Zhu and Xuan Xi ran behind Xuan Han at the same time and hugged her waist to lift her up.
Seeing their actions, everyone present felt that they were extremely cute and loving.
Lin Xuan also smiled.
He deliberately didn’t make a move because he wanted to nurture a sense of unity and kinship for the babies when they encountered difficulties.
This way, when they grew up, the four sisters would be able to love each other better.
However, after Xuan Zhu and Xuan Xi carried her up twice, they couldn’t carry Xuan Han anymore.
“Gee, my arms are so sore!”
“Yes, yes. Xuan Han seems to have become heavier!”
“Huh? Did I gain weight?”
Hearing the little girls’ cute conversation, Lin Xuan smiled and walked forward.
He used a grandmaster-level medical skill to ma.s.sage Xuan Zhu and Xuan Xi’s arms. It quickly made them extremely comfortable.
Xuan Han pouted and said, “This bell is fun, but it’s really too tiring to ring it.”
Xuan Zhu nodded. “That’s right. It’s so big, and we’re so small. It’s really difficult to ring!”
Xuan Xi rolled her big black eyes. “If only there was a small bell!”
Xuan You said, “If you want one, let Daddy make it!”
Lin Xuan rubbed Xuan You’s little head with a doting expression. “If you guys want to play, Daddy can make you guys little ones.”
“Wow! That must be interesting!”
“Father is indeed very impressive!”
The little girls were interested.
Nalan Yan, Ye Yang, and the others revealed shocked expressions.
The Consort actually wanted to make small bells for the princesses, but all the bells had always been this big.
However, they all felt that since Lin Xuan had promised the children, he would definitely be able to do what they wanted.
Then, Lin Xuan asked the servants of Yun Manlou to prepare nine jade bowls for him.
He then poured some water into each jade bowl in the order from less to more.
Under everyone’s shocked gazes, he picked up a chopstick and handed it to Xuan Han.
“Baby, try knocking on these bowls.”
Xuan Han nodded and knocked on the first jade bowl.
Ding!
The sound was light and crisp, and it lingered in the air.
“Huh? It seems very interesting!”
Xuan Han knocked on the second jade bowl and realized that the sound was different this time and was even clearer.
Then, she knocked from the third bowl to the last and realized that their sounds kept changing. It was very strange.
Lin Xuan smiled. “Try knocking faster.”
Xuan Han immediately sped up and realized that the sound was very similar to the chime.
They were all high and low changes.
Xuan Zhu pulled Lin Xuan excitedly and asked, “Father, what’s going on? Why can you make a sound similar to a bell when you fill the bowl with water?”
When she asked this, Xuan Xi, Xuan Han, Xuan You, and everyone present raised their heads in antic.i.p.ation of Lin Xuan’s answer.
Lin Xuan said, “Actually, the principle of releasing water in the bowl is the same as the sound emitted by the clock. They all sound through the vibration of the air.”
“And the level of the water is the same as the size of the clock. It can control the size of the portion of air that is vibrating, and thus change the tone and volume of the voice.”
Hearing his words, everyone was silent.
Especially for Nalan Yan, Ye Yang, and the others.
They only knew that bells could make different sounds.
How could he have known that there was such profound knowledge in it?
“As expected of the Consort. Such knowledge is really unprecedented and shocking!”
Under everyone’s respectful gazes, Lin Xuan rubbed the little babies’ heads dotingly.
“Alright, you can do whatever you want now.”
“Yay! Thank you, Father!”
The little girls were extremely happy.
They would never find it tiring to play with chopsticks to produce music!
Ding!
At this moment, the mechanical voice in Lin Xuan’s mind suddenly sounded.
“On a whim, you designed a novel and interesting percussion instrument for your daughters. Reward: Mystical Power—Ground Shrinking!”
